2.Oral Inflation Leak Test - This test should be performed every two months and at the start of each season. Inflate buoyancy chamber using the oral inflation valve and leave to rest for 16 hours. When buoyancy chamber remains firm and full of air there is no leakage and chamber is operational. If the chamber deflates during this leak test, it is no longer in operational condition and should not be used. Some types of leaks can be repaired by a certified Stearns Repair Facility, while others are not repairable. If the PFD leaks, either return to certified Stearns Repair Facility for evaluation and repair, or discard the PFD.

3.Function Test of Oral Valve - With the PFD inflated, remove the dust protection cap, and test the valve by pushing it down using the tab provided on the cap (refer to Page 10). The valve should depress easily, and when depressed, air should escape. When released the valve should automatically return to the closed position and reseal.
